Dead Marshes (overworld)

Welcome to the Middle-earth Collectibles section for The Dead Marshes in LEGO The Lord of the Rings. This page displays the location and a brief description of how to obtain each Mithril Brick, Red Brick, Quest and Unlockable Character scattered throughout the Middle-earth overworld map.

(Note: Always travel to each section at night by choosing the moon icon next to the map stone, as some collectibles can only be found when its dark. All other collectibles can be found either time of day.)

Mithril Bricks1. Head south of the path into the Dead Marshes and jump over three springy leaf plants, then jump up onto the elevated ledge and defeat three ghosts to obtain a Mithril brick.2. Head to the western-most point of the Dead Marshes and jump up the pillars jutting up out of the water to reach the brick.3. Walk south, over the beam connecting the islands, and look for a dark nook where you can use Frodo to uncover another brick.4. Right next to Mithril brick #3, look for a target sticking up from the water. Shoot it and jump on the lily pad to the three narrow beams and the island beyond. Dig up the Lego dirt here to uncover a plant that spits out a brick.5. Take the path south along the small platforms sticking out of the water and smash the 7 plants there within 5 seconds of one another and the brick will materialize.6. North of the map stone (and northwest from the Quest for the orc), look for a Morgul-locked chest. Break it open with the appropriate character to snag the brick.7. On the next island, burn down the stack of wood with Sam or Mithril Tinderbox and you'll be awarded with another Mithril brick.8. In the northeast corner of the marsh, ride the moving wooden platforms to the pillars out in the water. Once you reach them, hop up to the highest one to grab the brick.

Red Bricks9. Go all the way north in the swamp until you see a climbable wall. Scale it with Gollum or the Mithril Climbing Shoes and give the elf there your Mithril Headdress. Buy the Mithril Hearts Red Brick for 75,000 studs.

Quests10. See #9.11. North of the map stone, shoot four targets to open up the equivalent number of lily pads, then jump across and talk to the orc at the end of the island. He will ask for the Muddy Armor and give you a Mithril brick in return.12. To the south of the map stone, look for an orc near the unfinished frame of a house. He is asking for the Skeleton Key and will trade you a Mithril brick for it.
